On me after only owning it for 16 months. Piece of crap
Damn thing won't even hard reset with the hidden button.
Any suggestions on a new very expensive Wi-Fi router?

maybe you used a credit card that extends warranties another year?

I love mine. Can't speak for longevity though, probably only had it for 6 months.

Just took mine down (same model) cause I switched Internet providers and the modem I got has built in wifi that seems to be working well...

Interested in buying mine? It's about a year old.

Hit me up if interested: CDANIEL985@GMAIL.COM

haha I just switched over. A month ago I bought the TPLink Archer C7 and didn't get the performance I wanted. The 2.4 Ghz was ok but the 5Ghz was not what I expected. I only had my Firestick connected to the 5Ghz frequency and everything else to the 2.4. Granted - I'm currently renting a townhome so I have lots of neighbors close by and this I'm sure affects the performance.

Got the R7000 3 days ago for $150 on Amazon (price already went back up). Performance is excellent! Hope it doesn't crap out after 16 months

Same thing happened to mine 2 weeks ago. Same model and all. Ordered April 2016 from Amazon.

Woke up one day and no signal going out at all. Did resets, troubleshoots, googled issue etc. and no fix.

Not sure what to do with it now.
